Categories

Cleanliness
9.2
Consistently praised across reviews: described as 'spotless', 'very clean', and 'newly done up' — cleanliness is a clear strong point.
Service
9.4
Repeatedly highlighted as friendly, polite and very helpful (staff called 'amazing', specific praise for Sophie, fantastic bar staff and warm welcomes).
Location
9
Frequently noted as central and convenient (good for exploring Devizes); double glazing reduces street noise. Parking availability is limited which tempers the score slightly.
Room Quality
8.4
Rooms praised for comfortable beds, generous size, good showers and effective air conditioning; offset by specific complaint about a sliding glass en‑suite that compromises privacy and can be noisy.
Amenities
8.2
Good amenities noted (air conditioning, onsite restaurant/bar, well‑appointed rooms) but recurrent parking issues, limited free parking and occasional closure of bar/restaurant reduce the rating.
Value for Money
8.6
Generally seen as good/excellent value by many guests, though at least one guest felt it was not competitively priced; overall slightly above average.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast and food repeatedly described as great or excellent; bar and restaurant receive positive comments though occasional closures (e.g., Monday) are noted.
Overall Experience
8.6
Overall very positive with many recommending and intending to return; attractive decor and comfortable rooms, with some negatives (parking, en‑suite privacy) for a minority.

Lovely building
Pros:

The hotel was very attractive and in a good location. There was no official parking attached to the hotel, but plenty nearby. The staff were very pleasant and very helpful. The breakfast was excellent.

Cons:

When we opened our window we found it was directly above the kitchen extractor and the room immediately filled with the smell of frying! It was not pleasant and we requested a room change but the hotel was fully booked. However, there was air conditioning in the room so as it was a very warm evening, we closed the windows and turned the air conditioning on. Not ideal but better than the smell.
The room was also much smaller than any of the pictures on the website.

Pros:

The matress was so so comfy. The room was super quiet and spacious plus had aircon. The sheets & towels were super clean and the bathroom products smelt amazing.

Cons:

The pillows were shocking sadly. The overhead shower didn't work just sprayed really finely everywhere other than on the person so was unusable. The end of the bed jutted out and I caught my leg on it and have a nasty bruise, it needs to be shifted nearer the window.

The worst thing was the breakfast by a long way. There was no sourdough bread at all, every breakfast option inc it so pretty ridiculous to run out on a busy bank holiday. They offered cheap nasty bread instead. Only one round of tea was offered, the "continental" breakfast had a few stale cereals, a couple of yoghurts and some random jam!

No butter was put in the toast it was stone cold & very dry. My avocado was rock hard. For £15 a person it was shocking.
